ABOUT

This track has been on the back burner for a (very!) long time and started out as an outline composition in support of a short film, about a reincarnated witch.   As it turned out the film didn’t happen, but the song continued to evolve, and somewhere along the way got renamed to Selene!

It’s a song about two women, separated across time, and could follow several different themes: haunting, possession, reincarnation or perhaps love.. I'll leave you to decide..It touches on separation and isolation, the power of connections and perhaps a life rebuilt, for both the songs characters.

I’ve been very fortunate to be ably assisted in creating this track, by two fantastic pro musicians; Glenn Welman, on drums, and an absolute POWERHOUSE soprano vocal performance from Marion Schneider (Mioune) Without their talent, innovation and, in Marion’s case, a ton of advice, Selene would not be the track it is!  Thanks should also go to Joseph, at JREL Music Studio, Oklahoma City, whose mastering skills put the finishing touches to a track that I really am pleased with!  Thanks a million guys!

Lyrics

Verse 1: woman

In the quiet of the night,
Something stirs the wind
The silence isn’t right, I don’t know where
There’s some-thing lost inside,
 
Verse 2: Ghost 

I was a sigh behind the moon
A darker shade of night
A story ended far too soon, and far from sight 
But longing for the light 
 
Pre-Chorus: woman

I’m filled with questions with no answers
A masquerade without a dancer
 
Chorus: Ghost

Reach through the night — awake within my dream
Reach for the light
 
Verse 3 (duet)

There’s a truth to be revealed
Through shadows and through time
Throughout the counting of the years 
Our stories will entwine
You’ll be my voice, I’ll be your flame  

Pre-chorus 2 : both

The veil is torn, all doubts are gone
our souls are joined, our names are one
 
Chorus: both 

Reach through the night — awake within my dream
Reach for the light 
 
Middle Section : Ghost  

I thought I’d never be complete
A will without a form
You’re the spell I couldn’t speak
I’m the storm you’ve always worn 
                      
Final Chorus: both

Reach through the night — awake within my dream
Reach for the light 
 
Outro Chorus (quiet reprise)

Tonight — wake within my dream (ghost)
Reach for the light (woman)

When I heard the voice of this great Kenyan singer, I knew I had to write some music to this melody and style. It turned out a little bit rock-ish, listen to it!

We wrote this track trying to imagine what it feels like for people who once made music in a real, organic way, then discovered how easy it is to use AI to pump out songs and make fast profit.
Some of them even deny using AI vocals… even though the same two-to-four AI voice timbres show up across basically all AI-generated songs, not just in one profile. Anyone who listens a lot can recognize them instantly.
And the ironic part? Many musicians go under those tracks and write huge compliments about the “amazing vocals,” taking them at face value.
We’re not anti-AI. AI exists and it's here to stay.
We’re against the indiscriminate and unregulated use of AI that disrespects the work of people who actually make music.
This song isn’t a rant.
It’s satire. A snapshot. A reminder that creativity still matters… no matter what trend is taking over.
Peace, joy… and above all, ethical AI for everyone.😉

Lyrics:

Oh-oh, oh-oh...
She’s singin’ better than we are,
AI killed the human star.

We stayed up late, the room was loud,
cheap beer, bad takes, a faithful crowd.
Now every song’s a perfect clone,
she types the notes, I check my phone.

We used to bleed to make it shine,
now she does it in half the time.

AI killed the human star,
no pulse, no soul, just perfect art.
Plug her in, she steals my part,
and somehow makes it sound like heart.

I miss the cracks, the out-of-key,
the shaky hands, the “damn, that’s me.”
Now every chord is tight and clean,
like something built inside a dream.

She learns the pain, but not the sweat,
I play along, she wins the bet.

AI killed the human star,
she took my voice, she took my scars.
Now all my ghosts are on her drive,
she sings them back, too much alive.

We built her drunk on coffee grounds,
she took the throne, we lost the sound.
Now I’m just lines inside a file,
she smiles, and makes it worth a while.

AI killed the human star,
but damn, she makes it sound bizarre.
Maybe we’re the ones to blame,
for givin’ her our fire and name.

Oh-oh, oh-oh...
AI killed the human star.

She killed it good!
Yeah! Not for us!

AI Killed the Human Star

Inner

This song is about what really happens when family comes together — the good memories, the broken pieces, the people we miss, and the things we’re finally ready to let go of. It’s about cracked plates, old stories, old wounds, and the way a familiar room can hold both pain and comfort at the same time. 

I wanted to capture that moment where everyone sits down, looks around the table, and realizes that forgiveness doesn’t have to be a big dramatic thing — sometimes it’s just passing the wine, sharing a smile, or choosing not to reopen the same old fight. It’s about letting love be louder than the history we’ve all lived through. 

This song is my way of honoring how imperfect and beautiful family can be, and how a simple meal can become the place where healing finally starts.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Cracked plates and stories untold
Grandma's laugh a treasure of gold
Remember the fights the slamming of doors
We gather now on familiar floors 

[Prechorus]
Can we let it go
Can we let it go 

[Chorus]
Around this table of forgiveness
Love's the only thing we profess
Pass the gravy pass the wine
Let bygones be bygones this time 

[Verse 2]
Uncle Joe's got a brand new wife
Little Timmy's got a brand new life
Auntie Susan she can't make it this year
But we know she's with us oh so near 

[Prechorus]
Can we let it go
Can we let it go 

[Chorus]
Around this table of forgiveness
Love's the only thing we profess
Pass the gravy pass the wine
Let bygones be bygones this time

Table of Forgiveness

This song came from one of those quiet November moments when the world feels cold and still, and you’re not even sure what you’re grateful for — but you feel it anyway. It’s about standing in the middle of winter’s chill, watching the bare trees, hearing the wind, and realizing there’s a small fire inside you that refuses to go out.

It’s cozy and reflective, like being wrapped in a blanket while the wind howls outside. It’s about finding warmth even when things feel frozen, seeing a glow even on the gray days, and letting the winter teach you how to grow.

Sometimes gratitude isn’t loud or obvious. Sometimes it’s soft, simple, and quiet — like snow falling or a low-burning fire. This song is my way of holding onto those moments and sharing that warmth with you.


LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
November air is cold you know
The trees are bare
The ground is froze
But the fire's burning
Oh so low

[Prechorus]
Got a thankful heart
Yeah I do

[Chorus]
What am I grateful for I don't know
The sun it shines I see the glow
I'm grateful for the winter snow
It helps me grow

[Verse 2]
The wind it howls a mournful tune
Beneath the eaves
Under the moon
But inside is cozy
Coming soon

[Prechorus]
Got a thankful heart
Yeah I do

[Chorus]
What am I grateful for I don't know
The sun it shines I see the glow
I'm grateful for the winter snow
It helps me grow

Thankful Heart

I wonder how a RAP and an African vocal, melody fit together in one song. I think there could be a good connection in the music too. The vocal comes from Kenya and America, the music is from me.

For every moment

I am a rapper who is based in Norway. I have been writing and recording funky, thoughtful and catchy songs since 2019. I started out with writing poems on a blog I had, but found out I could combine rhyming with what I love the most, which is rap music. My vocals are smooth and give a kind of soothing feeling. I always try to add a beat which drives the song, and is catchy and well-produced. My topics are profound, original and has a goal to teach, express and dig deep into whatever I'm writing about. It could be a song about finding peace, happiness and growth, or it could be a song about learning from mistakes, taking action and trying to improve oneself. Always! I try to bring a new perspective to the topics I write about, and hope I can give listeners value for their time. I'm very dedicated, and appreciate all responses. So listen, enjoy and don't forget to follow!

Thanks for your attention!
